Lots to celebrate here at Jaunty Goblin HQ!  We zoomed past the midpoint goal of the campaign just when July rolled around, and our layout editor gave us a look at the wonderful work she's done formatting the first twelve chapters of the book.  Better yet, a few clues from a deep dive into BackerKit's toolset suggests we're reaching far more people than we ever anticipated.

We stand at $1353 with thirteen days left in the campaign, and the majority of backers are folks who laid eyes on the project for the first time in June.  If a third of the project followers from our original mailing list hop on board the Chancers campaign in the home stretch, we should have no trouble meeting our fundraising goal!

Today I'm working on the chapter on Secrets, lore that experienced Chancers can use to increase their command of magic and work around some of the limitations that tripped up the earliest wielders of chance.  Interest in the game has us thinking especially about longevity lately, so we're doing our best to make sure you can have fun in the Drifting Kingdoms for years to come!

And we've saved the best news for last.  Your interest in Chancers has us deepening our investment in the game; on June 28th we locked in a new commission for art from Fabled Beast Design and a commission for a new city map from Silver Compass Maps. The book is getting richer and more beautiful by the day, and we can't wait to get it into your hands.

We here at Jaunty Goblin hope you have a great weekend in store, and an especially festive long weekend if you're here in the U.S., and that we all get a reprieve from the heat as we spend time with family and friends doing the things we love.  

Take care,
Bill @ Jaunty Goblin
